Only two answers, one saying that in fact the PGX32 card from Sun is an
ATI PCI card. No direct relation with the old TGX, so backward
compatibility is probably out the door !

The second answer is to use a product called XbigX
(http://www.x-software.com/Software/Xbigx).

Thank's to both of you (Sorry, I've lost your address... I use this
delete button to fast!)

Original question:

> Hi Sunners,
>
> We've an in-house product that was written on Sun4m systems using SBUS
> and TGX or TGX+ cards. THis product is written in low-level system call
> to the TGX/TGX+ card (it's a Xserver that can do a virtual X server
> using more than one graphic card).
>
> My question is this: does the PGX has any downward compatibility mode
> with the TGX/TGX+ card ?
>
> We're looking at replacing old sun4m systems by new ultras.
